    hey, been doing these questions for a while now and certain ones I'm fnding really hard,
    can anyone tell me how I would draw the lewis structure for these following compunds, with lone pairs and electrons the works drawn in.

    H3SnF
    CH3PCl2
    H2SnF
    S2Cl2
    HSnCl3
    BrF....................is it just Br-F , with three set lone pairs on Br and likewise for F?
    SeCl4
    HSiF3.............is silicon in the middle of what looks like a tetrahedral structure with three flourines coming out of one side and the top of the structure a H?Then three lone pairs on each F?
    P4 (Not sure about this at all)
    SCl2 (think i may have this one)
    H2SnF2
    H2SiF2

    I would be so grateful if anyone would take the time to explain these structures briefly, as it would give me a pass alone if i can answer this question perfectly in the exam. Thanks.
